As close to an original '58 as you can get.
The 1958 Gibson Les Paul Standard Plain Top VOS guitar begins with a solid mahogany back and carved
plain maple top. The one-piece mahogany neck is topped with a gorgeous rosewood fretboard that's adorned with acrylic trapezoid
inlays with shape and color true to the original. Early '50s rounded neck profile delivers the vintage feel players love.
BurstBucker 1 and 2 pickups deliver famous vintage Les Paul tone.
In an effort to jump start the steadily declining
sales of the Les Paul model, Gibson abandoned the familiar gold finish and used a translucent, cherry sunburst finish which
showed off the figured maple tops that were often used on Les Pauls. The renamed Les Paul Standard made its debut in 1958.
Vintage
Original Spec series instruments receive a special nitro-cellulose finish treatment yielding the patina of a gently-aged vintage
guitar while handcrafting enhances comfort and playability. Each VOS model has a solid mahogany back; historically accurate
long-neck tenon for strength and sustain; and period-correct neck profile, hardware, and electronics.
